Originally created in 1892, this scent is inspired by a Japanese princess who left the Victorian Court in awe with her elegance. This fragrance definitely translates that oriental elegance - it’s gentle and subdued, but not lacking in character or interest. A refreshing opening of juicy bergamot and a kick of pink pepper pave the way for a heavy dose of mate tea - this is softly green and earthy, with gentle steamy qualities. This is very well balanced with whispers of indolic jasmine, resting on a woody fir base. This is a very enjoyable scent overall, however I find it quite linear and lacking a sense of journey or development. The story behind the scent comes through but it’s missing some heart, I would love to be able to smell the original 1892 version. I think for the price Clive Christian is asking for, this is definitely not worth it.
